"General preparation: Remove any loose or flaking paint. Where necessary, wash the surface to remove dirt, grease etc. Treat surfaces affected by mould growth with a suitable fungicidal wash. Sand down to remove any sheen.
Seal new, bare and porous surfaces with a thinned coat of Dulux Easycare Bathroom+ (10% clean water). Porous surfaces, including previously unpainted patterned textured ceiling coatings, new buildings that have a plasterboard finish and wallcoverings that are suitable for painting (not vinyl or washables) should be sealed with Dulux Plaster Sealer for best results.
Stir thoroughly with a palette knife or similar implement before use. For normal use thinning is not required. However, in hot weather and warm environments, up to 10% clean water may be added and stirred in to ease application."

As said, don't use PVA. Some painters do have success with this - but that's down to them. Don't try it.
Thanks John, is there any chance you could look at my other post please?"General preparation: Remove any loose or flaking paint. Where necessary, wash the surface to remove dirt, grease etc. Treat surfaces affected by mould growth with a suitable fungicidal wash. Sand down to remove any sheen.

What should I do with a small damp patch?
What should I do with a small damp patch? The paint has been flaky but not black or mouldy It's at the bottom of a wall where the old wall meets the extension. It's a concrete floor.
